About the Item

Heritage of Nomadic Craftsmanship Discover the rugged beauty and cultural depth of this antique Persian tribal rug, hand-knotted circa 1900. Made from a rare blend of dyed wool and naturally undyed camel hair, this piece captures the essence of nomadic weaving traditions from early 20th-century Persia. Its earthy tones, hand-spun textures, and authentic irregularities tell the story of craftsmanship rooted in history and survival. — Natural Camel Hair Elegance and Tribal Warmth The most striking feature of this rug is its radiant golden-mustard border — the unaltered color of pure camel hair. This natural hue beautifully frames a deep red-brown central field filled with symbolic motifs and stylized geometric medallions. Accents of muted indigo, cream, and terracotta enrich the surface, creating visual balance and timeless harmony. Each pattern carries cultural meaning — symbols of protection, fertility, and endurance woven by skilled tribal hands. — Soft Patina and Authentic Condition This antique Persian rug remains in good, original condition with age-appropriate wear that enhances its character. The wool and camel hair fibers have softened over time, developing a gentle patina that reflects a century of life and use. The texture is resilient yet supple, making it not only an artifact of artistry but also a functional, enduring textile. — Versatile Proportions with Inviting Warmth Measuring 3'6" × 4'11" (107 cm × 150 cm), this modestly sized rug is ideal for layering, accenting intimate spaces, or adding warmth to a modern interior. Whether placed near a hearth, entryway, or beneath a reading chair, it infuses the space with authenticity, comfort, and cultural depth. — Key Information Type: Handmade antique Persian tribal rug Origin: Persia (Middle East) Age: Circa 1900 Material: Hand-knotted wool and undyed camel hair wool Design: Tribal geometric and symbolic motifs Colors: Undyed Camel (Golden Mustard), Deep Red/Brown, Cream, Indigo, Terracotta Condition: Good, original antique condition with consistent, age-appropriate wear Dimensions: 3'6" × 4'11" (107 cm × 150 cm)
